Actually, I tend to sing at pitch.  It's the listeners that say "that's
just too high, can I get this a third lower?" then.  In my active times,
I've had to sing bass, tenor and alto in a single choir concert (moving
between pieces was one heck of a complex routine to remember).  But of
course one has to keep up a good practice regime to do that gracefully.

I'd guess that Android should be possible.  But it would likely be quite
a challenge to teach that to GUB.
